E492: Not an editor command: PlugInstall

[evesdropper]

I'm setting up neovim on my computer and I keep getting E492: Not an editor command: PlugInstall whenever I try to run :PlugInstall. I installed using powershell (and the file exists in nvim-data/site/autoload and this was the original result. Then I read online about adding adding plug.vim to /autoload like some of the issues stated, but again, this did not work as well. I thought this was perhaps a Git Bash problem, but it seems that it doesn't work when running nvim on Powershell either. If there's anything I missed or anything wrong with my setup, please let me know. Thanks!

My bad - I forgot to source the file I was calling the plugin installations. 😅

It works fine after making sure I did that.
